Can You Ban Customers From Comparison
Shopping?
08/16/2004 04:25 PM
While Korean bookstores are worried about students photo graphing textbooks with camera phones, according to Alan Reiter, Dick's Sporting Goods is claiming to ban customers from using camera phones to stop them from comparison shopping. Why don't they just scream out that they're more expensive and to avoid them in the first place? While a store can decide which customers they want to serve, it seems particularly anti-customer to tell your customers they can't use a camera phone in your store. While I don't have a camera phone, I do often use my phone to look up more information about products I am looking at in a store, and it's helped convince me to buy a product quite a few times (though, the opposite is also true). Under the rules at Dick's Sporting Goods, apparently, they'd kick me out of the store for trying to be a more informed shopper. Companies can try to target just the dumb shoppers, but with the ease of information transfer these days, they're looking at a shrinking market.

Ok, this story is appearing everywhere, and is a few days old, but people keep submitting it. So, in case you haven't caught it at one of the fifty other sites that have linked to it, according to the Florida State University newspaper, some administration folks there have decided to work out a great "compromise" deal with Apple to let FSU distribute iTunes for free on campus. Yes, that's right, the software that is already free everywhere, will also be free on FSU's campus. We can only assume they had blocked it out entirely before. Even better, FSU administrators struck a hard bargain with those Apple music barons by getting them to take a whopping $0.00 off the price of each song so, yes, you guessed it, each song will cost people $0.99. Such a deal! The best part, of course, are the quotes: "I think it is a fantastic idea," and "This just makes it more available for everybody else to use it." Ah yes, by offering the same deal that everyone else gets, it's now "more available." One hopes that in this "deal" FSU isn't actually paying anything to Apple, but if they are, congratulations Apple for suckering FSU. Someone might suggest (just maybe) that some of the administrators at FSU should sit in on a few classes taught by the wonderfully named Ransom McClung, teacher of classes on financial accounting and, yes, fraud examination.

Government Launches Comparison Shopping

Government Launches Comparison Shopping
Site For Drugs
04/30/2004 02:05 AM
The government has launched what is basically a comparison shopping engine for prescription drugs. Drug buyers can go to the site, put in the drugs they have prescriptions for along with their zipcode and find out what local pharmacies are charging. While, officially, the site is designed for Medicare recipients to help them determine what sort of "discount card" they should get, people have quickly noticed that the "discount card" is something of a misnomer. The prices you get with the discount card are pretty damn similar to what you get without it. Still, by making prescription drug buyers more informed, the government is hoping to push drug prices down. Of course, if they really wanted to do that, they'd list Canadian pharmacy prices as well.
